Liveaboard - Would you?

Living aboard a beautifully outfitted yacht is a reality for some and a longstanding dream for many. Cruise the ocean and intercoastal waterways, fish when you choose, and fall asleep in a comfortable berth rocked gently by the waves.

Creating a life aboard a yacht, comfortable, safe, and ocean-ready, is easier than you may think. Many people find their ideal ocean-going home, sell their house, and begin life as full-time liveaboards. The boat becomes both their principal residence and a vacation home.

So, why not pursue the dream?

CONSIDER THE BENEFITS OF LIVING ABOARD A YACHT

Life aboard a boat is the embodiment of freedom. You escape the overly familiar routines of everyday life like commutes in heavy traffic, yard work, and that feeling of entrapment we experience when always surrounded by walls, buildings, noise, and neighbours. Living on the water opens your perspective to new horizons each day.

Exploring new and exciting places at a moment’s notice with your belongings already aboard is the true essence of freedom. There’s no need for a hotel. You may choose to visit a shore restaurant only when the spirit moves you.

When living aboard your boat, you are not bound by conventional restrictions. You can enjoy guiding your craft to new destinations while marvelling at unrestricted views of the sunrise or sunset.

Know that you will be living the life that many others want to have, but most will never achieve.

European Boat of the Year

Freedom

Already packed and loaded, head out to a nearby island or distant destination. Spend a day fishing the waters without the hassle of driving to the marina, traffic delays, parking, or having to stop at roadside restaurants and hotels along the way.

When rigged with sufficient fuel and water capacities, your luxury craft can reach destinations hundreds of miles away.

Communing with Nature

Even while inside, you are always surrounded by Mother Nature's water, sky, and glorious sea air. Enjoy lounging on the deck, or move inside to enjoy your spacious, comfortable, and seaworthy watercraft.

Sea birds will fly about while dolphins playfully surface and dive to grab your attention. For most of us, life aboard a well-appointed boat can be far more interesting than heading to the local for a beer and a catch up with mates, and far more relaxing than any day spa. The simplicity that comes with the lack of urgency and clean fresh air, fills your soul with calm energy. The gentle lapping of the tide, sunsets and sunrises shared with only passing sea life. You are in your world and nothing can interrupt unless you allow it…. bliss!

All the Comforts of Home

Garcia GT54 - EUROPEAN BOAT OF THE YEAR!

Modern liveaboard boats are designed for comfortable, full-time living. State-of-the-art kitchen areas, bathrooms, and entertainment salons are designed to accommodate full-time residents. Flat-screen TVs, WIFI, surround sound, wet bars, and more can make your seafaring home precisely what you want it to be.

Choose Your Neighbors

Should you choose to stay at a marina vs going to sea, choose one with a designated liveaboard area as your home base, you are among people with common interests. Here you should be separated from the weekenders and day-trippers that are often noisy and interested only in their personal enjoyment. Full-time liveaboard neighbours respect your privacy and desire for quiet.

If, for some reason, you haven’t found the right mix of neighbours, move your seagoing home to another marina. Something that’s a little more difficult to do with a foundation-anchored, land-based home.
